SLR was one of Shipmano’s efforts to prevent bike manufacturers from not using a complete component group. The SLR brakes used a lighter spring in the calipers to open them and a spring in the lever to pull the cable back. If you paired a lower cost springless lever with the SLR calipers you got a mushy feel. STI, Shipmano Total Integration was a further step first, on flat bar bikes, mounting the shifter directly to brake lever made it difficult to use shipmano index shift systems but cheaper brakes. I believe there was a lawsuit over this. Unfortunately market pressure weighed in and customers (thanks various “buyers guides” from bike rags, consumer reports etc) soon began demanding complete groups and Suntour just couldn’t complete.
